PepsiCo Brazil Chooses Filling Technology From SIG Combibloc

Food and beverage company PepsiCo Brazil has opted to work with SIG Combibloc. To broaden the range of packaging solutions it can provide, a CFA 712 filling machine to aseptically fill Toddynho chocolate drinks in combiblocSmall carton packs was installed at PepsiCo’s Palmares (Alagoas) production plant.

With almost 100 distribution agencies and 9,000 employees, PepsiCo Brazil is one of the country's biggest businesses. Its portfolio includes brands such as Frito Lay (snacks), Quaker (breakfast cereals), Toddy/Toddynho (milk mix drinks), Propel and Gatorade (sports drinks), Trop Coco and Kero Coco (coconut water), Frutzzz, H2OH!, Pepsi-Cola (carbonated beverages) and – in cooperation with Unilever – Lipton (ready-to-drink tea). Since February 2012, the popular Toddynho-brand milk mix drinks have been selling in Brazil in combiblocSmall 200 ml with drinking straw. Toddynho products are specially made for growing children.
